We are so excited to welcome Alice to our team! πŸ’›πŸŽ‰

Alice is a Certified Music Therapist, Registered Psychotherapist (Qualifying), and Masters-level intern here at Shine Music and Therapy Services. Alice holds a bachelor degree in Music Therapy from Wilfrid Laurier University and is in the final stages of obtaining her Masters of Arts in Counselling Psychology degree from Yorkville University.

Alice brings a compassionate, client-centered approach to her work, grounded in empathy, authenticity, and the therapeutic relationship. She has experience supporting a wide range of clients, including older adults, children, and adolescents. Common populations served include individuals living with dementia, those navigating grief and life transitions, and neurodivergent individuals.

Her approach often draws from Cognitive Behavioural Therapy (CBT), Dialectical Behaviour Therapy (DBT), and Emotion-Focused Therapy (EFT).

Alice is committed to creating an inclusive, affirming space for all clients and has a particular interest in working with LGBTQ+ communities, offering queer-affirming therapy that honours each person’s identity and lived experience.

If you are interested in working with Alice, she is available for in-person or virtual sessions on Mondays and Saturdays. ✨

This is what we are working toward in every session. Not just talking, but truly connecting 🌿

When you feel genuinely seen, heard, and valued, something in the nervous system softens. That is not a small thing. That is the foundation of healing.

You’ve rested. You’ve slept. You’ve taken the break. And still, you’re exhausted.

This month on the blog, we’re talking about the difference between physically tired and emotionally depleted, what chronic stress actually does to the nervous system, and where to begin when rest just isn’t cutting it anymore.

For many people, saying no doesn’t just feel uncomfortable, it can feel threatening. Guilt, anxiety, or fear of disappointing others often show up, especially if connection once felt conditional on being accommodating or agreeable.

In therapy, we explore boundaries as a form of care, not disconnection. Boundaries help protect your energy, clarify your needs, and create relationships that are sustainable rather than draining. Learning to honour yourself doesn’t mean you care less about others. It means you’re including yourself in the relationship.

If navigating boundaries feels heavy or confusing, therapy can be a supportive place to practice this work with guidance and compassion.

✨ Free 20-minute consultations are available via the link in our bio.

So many of us try to motivate ourselves through pressure, comparison, or self-criticism, and then wonder why we feel stuck or depleted. From a therapeutic perspective, growth happens when the nervous system feels safe enough to soften, not when it feels rushed.

You are allowed to move at a pace that feels steady, supportive, and sustainable for you. Healing doesn’t need urgency to be real. It needs trust, patience, and compassion 🌱
